Comedy and characters on screen
Hans Morten Hansen is a Norwegian comedian, writer and actor. Born in Bergen and raised in Stavanger, he has worked in live comedy as well as television and film.
He made his comedy debut at a Stavanger humour festival in 1993 and became a full-time entertainer in 1995. His solo shows include Is this it? and Roper i skogen, both recognised with Komiprisen awards.
On Norwegian television, Hansen plays neighbour Rolf Gullestad in Side om side. His film work includes Trolljegeren, known internationally as Troll Hunter.
In Kraken (2026), he plays Olav, a seaman in the Norwegian monster film. An interview with Stavanger Aftenblad notes that the role called for a different regional dialect from his own.
